CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi all,

got a new project in the pipeline, and am wanting to use ListIt2, but was wondering how many list items the module can safely handle?

I've read elsewhere that it has its limits - but could it be used for 1500 nodes/items for example?

Thanks in advance
rpr.

It depends.

Each field rises memory requirements exponentially.

It's tested with 20 000 items and 10 fields with single page load render time: 28,4 sec.

Memory required back then was: 384 megs.

If you use pagination correctly, i don't see problems.

Keep in mind that some functionalities like export / import might require more memory from your system than normal web site.

We are working all the time to make it perform better, but due it's complexity it's not easy task.

Many thanks Stikki, for your detailed reply. We will be using pagination, and the fact that you've tested up to 20,000, makes me confident that ListIt2 will be more than capable in handling our requirements.

Thanks again.
